THQ to sell off its back catalog of franchises 'in the coming weeks'

Despite the rather definitive auctioning of THQ’s key franchises yesterday, there are still some, such as Darksiders, de Blob, and Red Faction that have yet to be sold. This has led many to fear that these franchises might be going down with the ship.

Fans of these franchises did not worry, as what remains of the publisher’s franchises will be sold off. As president Jason Rubin told Game Informer, “There will be a separate process to sell off the back catalog and IP. That process will take place in the coming weeks.”

Now the questions that remain are: when exactly will this separate process begin, and who might be interested in these remaining franchises? Feel free to let us know what you think in the comment box below.
